Coldplay Feat. Rihanna - Princess Of China

The collaboration of perhaps the biggest band and biggest female solo artist in the world right now was bound turn heads from the offset...."Princess Of China" is a track taken from Coldplay's forthcoming fifth album "Mylo Xyloto" and features vocals from none other than Bajan superstar Rihanna. Lead singer Chris Martin describes himself proposing a duet to Rihanna as being "very Hugh Grant-like and spluttering". He recently explained: "We had a song that I'd secretly kind of written to see if Rihanna would want to sing it. And then the rest of the band wanted to keep it, so we came up with the idea of asking her to sing it with us, and, to our great surprise, she said okay." The track is an anthemic and epic slow-chugging blend of synths, guitars and orchestration that Martin himself describes as an album "highlight". Strangely enough the voices of Martin and Rihanna complement each other perfectly....and the track would not sound out of place on a Rihanna album itself! This is a great track and is definitely going to prove itself as a talking point throughout the music world! Enjoy!
